League of Legends: Wild Rift Dev Tracker

If you read the next paragraph after you will see:

• To ensure that teams who want to play together competitively can still do so, we will likely not restrict premade teams outright, but instead alter their VP gains.

Joking aside, I felt I could clarify this a bit. We aren't actually changing the rank that Challengers can match, we are changing the skill or MMR gap between two teams, which much more directly impacts the chance of the stack winning. It's similar, but the distinction is important because by using MMR instead of rank, it is not affected by us widening Diamond and Master.

Basically, instead of a 5-stack Challenger team getting opponents they beat 95% of the time, they will now only get team a balance that a good solo queue player would also get, meaning they will either:

• Lose just as often as solo queue players and therefore not climb faster, so it's not an advantage anymore (no more win% advantage)
• Not find matches at all because there are very few 5-stacks that would have their MMR close enough to the Challenger stack for the match to be fair. So instead of queuing as a 5-stack, they will queue solo to find...

Thank you for following up! I think this one is being tracked for a fix in a future patch

Ya the attack speed is a bit funky, flavorful for sure, but not the useful stat for the champion.

You are unable to refund an item after you have interacted with other units. So if you dealt damage (ignite, Brand passive, Morgana pool, Tristana Bomb, etc) or helped an ally (redemption) those items might have helped you in some way and you are not able to refund your items.

This isn't so much a bug, but us making sure you can't buy a bunch of AP to enhance your DoTs after you die, only to refund it and get something else.

Like I said in your other post: if you're seeing this consistently, capture me a video. Or if anyone else here can send me a video example (and rough game times when you experience the issues). If I can see what you're doing I can better diagnose what's happening and get a fix for it. A video of your experience is really, really valuable because we can see what you're inputing and what your network status/FPS are. We can't see this on a replay. For controls issues all that info is really important to understand what is going on.

We take core controls issues like this very seriously, but intermittent problems (or problems that only happen for a small number of players) are really hard to track down because we can't reproduce them, which means we can't tell what's wrong or if we've fixed it. If you can get me a video I will personally run this down with our QA and devs.

How to do on iPhone: ...

Yes, I can see what we can find not 100% sure we'd be able to see your replays, send me your riotID/username and region you're playing in along with the match times. If you see them, you could also record a video. Or double check and see if you can tell what's happening when you slow it down.

Our QA checked this out and weren't able to reproduce the issue (best they could do was have them both die at the same time). Is it possible you unintentionally detached? Also, if you can give me a video of it happening I can follow up more.

I'll keep an eye out, but if you can get a video it will really help us in figuring out what's going on. On iPhone it's pretty easy to enable screen recording and then capture a whole game.

Do you have "Force attack follow" ON in the controls settings? If you do, turn it off and it should stop that behavior. If you don't that is a bug and a pretty painful one. It could be either the movestick going inactive when it shouldn't, some network problem, or the force attack follow system is active when it should be off. If you can capture a video of the behavior happening that would be really helpful.

Sorry my dude, I don't work on the matchmaking side of things so have really limited insight into what you're seeing :( Our matchmaking lead is active on twitter, don't know his handle offhand though.

Sure, our matchmaking lead is active on twitter you can talk to them there. Don't know offhand what his twitter handle is, but I'm sure you can find it somewhere.

DM me what you're seeing (any evidence you have). We plan to revisit win-trading detection because we expect that players will have adapted to try to evade detection. I can't directly action on players, but we can use that info to improve our methods.

Oh boy, the warning is separate from this AFK method. Let me follow up on that because we might have missed it. We had special tunings for Yuumi because of her play pattern.

Endstep talked about this on his stream a bit the other day. Basically, Diana's rework was being developed on PC at the same time that the Wild Rift team was working on her. So while the core ideas are the same some of the details had changed. If we were to add any additional effects/damage then it would be too strong unless we shaved power from other places. This would have likely made things feel a bit worse as its power would need to be divided into multiple places.

As someone working on champions these are always fun to read.

No, should be all regions. However, we're not scanning all games yet until we verify that our accuracy is good.

Yes, I don't think credit score from CN is the right solution to the problem though. The key thing we would want is persistent removal of rewards/privileges for disruptive players until a player can show they've reformed and are neutral or positive. The downside of a basic credit score system is that it also creates a lot of stress and abuse potential for regular players (e.g. if I play badly will someone report me and take away my rewards?). Generally I would prefer most players not have to worry about the system and then we celebrate positivity (e.g. like honor).

Edit: let me expand on this a bit too. We've considered whether to bring over the CN credit system after launch if it had a positive impact. So far we haven't seen evidence of that and negative behavior is a big pain point in CN as well. We considered it pretty risky to just deploy it to the rest of the world when our intuition was that there are some negative abuse cases hiding in there. So we made the call to r...

Should be low chance of that happening. The reason why this has taken so long is that we've gone through multiple cycles of dark launching the detection and looking at what it detects to lower our chances of false positives like junglers waiting for a gank opportunity.

For now, yes, and we are looking at revisiting the penalties. We wanted to get better detection up and running first though. We still have to get to the point where we're confident running detection for all games (it's just a subset right now while we check things out).
